How to connect Fuji Xerox printer to wifi?

Let’s move on to the methods you can use to connect Fuji Xerox printers to wifi.

Method 1: Connect through the wifi Wizard

This method is quick and easy. The printer will show you a list of available wifi networks. You’d have to select one and automatically let the printer connect to wifi.

Go to the printer’s control panel and log in as the administrator.
Open the Home/Menu.
Go to Device > Connectivity > Wi-Fi.
You’ll see a list of available wireless networks. Click on the name of your wireless network to connect.
If it asks for the network’s password, enter it and press OK.
Return to the Home/Menu button.
Restart the printer to activate the wifi settings.

Method 2(a): WPS using PBC (Push button connection)

This method allows a secure connection with only a push of a button. However, you have to ensure that the router is configured correctly and WPS compliant.

Go to the control panel and log in as the administrator.
Press the Menu/Home button.
Go to Device > Connectivity > Wi-Fi.
Open Manual Setup
Go to wifi protected Setup (WPS)

NOTE: If you can’t find the wifi Protected Setup (WPS) option, at the top of the screen, open Manual Setup, then tap PBC. Tap on OK.

On the wifi router, press the WPS button. The wireless router shows setup information for 120 seconds.
Now, restart the printer to activate the new network settings.

Method 2(b): WPS using Pin (Personal Identification Number)

WPS-Pin allows automatic connection with the router using a Pin code. The printer and wireless router recognize the pin and exchange information to connect to the wifi network.

Open the printer’s control panel and log in as the administrator.
Go to the Menu/Home button.
Select Device > Connectivity > Wi-Fi.
Open the wireless router control panel on the PC and click on the “Add WPS Client” option.
Choose the “PIN Method.” The wireless router control panel prompts a pop-up window box ready for the PIN.
Now, return to the printer’s control panel to the wifi settings.
Tap Manual Setup.
Tap on wifi Protected Setup (WPS).
Open the PIN.
Note the PIN from the screen and tap OK. The printer starts broadcasting using the shown PIN Code.
The printer continues processing for 120 seconds. After locating the wireless router, the network connection becomes successful.

NOTE: The steps may vary with different router brands. You can consult the router’s manual to find more details. Also, if you’re a non-administrator user, you won’t get access to the WPS internal settings page. In that case, contact your ISP or network administrator for assistance. You could also select another connection method.

Method 3: Connect to wifi manually using the printer’s control panel

This method is identical to the first one. The only difference is that you manually input the wifi details to connect to the wireless network. Follow the same steps from method 1 to go to the manual setup.

At the manual setup, configure the wifi settings by entering the required information.
When you’re asked for the SSID (wireless network) name, put in the name of your SSID network and press OK.
For security, choose the security option your router uses.
Go to password, type in your wifi password, and tap OK.
Go back to the Home button and restart the printer.
